Right now they’re unveiling the upcoming Xbox that’s going to compete with the PS4. I’m watching the streaming right now.
First of all, its name is stupid. Xbox One. I think it’s stupid because it’s not the first Xbox. It’s the third. I like Playstation’s name: Playstation 4.
Nothing else of much note has really come out yet. I’m waiting to see what they’ll say about price and always online. There’s no way I’ll ever get one either way, I just like hearing about new stuff.
Oh my god I wish they would stop taking so much and show some shit. The EA presentation was boring as shit. All they’ve shown so far has been pre rendered cg animations.
What’s wrong with the name xbox one? They clearly aren’t referring to it being the first xbox. It’s the one stop shop for all your shit.
A Halo TV show by Spielberg?
I wonder if any of these features are going to work outside of the USA. My guess is no.
I don’t like the name because it isn’t clear. So they have the Xbox and the Xbox One.
I agree that they’re showing an awful little amount of gameplay and specs. I don’t care what professional athletes have to say. Let me see the game.
I hate how they’re shoving “sharing” down every aspect. But I know that’s how the world is moving and it’s a losing battle. They should get off my lawn.
Xbox One has fewer calories than the other Xboxes. Hopefully MS will show what it looks like unlike Sony.
Haters gonna hate.
Call of Duty in game footage looked pretty nice.
I wonder what the chances are it will be backwards compatible.
There is the XBox, the XBox 360, and now the XBox One.
Did the 360 confuse you into thinking there had been 359 previous versions?
Apparently it’s a DVR with a Windows 8 interface. That also can play games.
It’s the Xbox (three hundred and sixty) One.
This was supposed to be about hardware, I guess. Other than CGI trailers and cut scenes, we saw very little for the games.
Nope, because the numbers went up.
The new Call of Duty looks gorgeous. I bet they’ll kill the dog during one mission. I’ll probably get sad.
They didn’t say anything about the hardware either though.
I wouldn’t read too much into that. Sony’s stock fell right after their announcement.
eta: Goddamnit, I should have said, “I wouldn’t put too much stock in that stock announcement.”
Well, I’m no marketing department, but I think they should have gone with:
XBox 720
XBox McSexBox
XBox Extreeme, with Lanolin
Backwards compatibility is a no. XBLA games won’t even transfer over.
This presentation was boring as shit (and I see Cubsfan agrees with me). Where are the games MS? I can watch football on my cable box, I see no need to run it through my Xbox One.
Apparently they’re trying to get rid of the used market as well. Every time you buy a new game it installs on the XB1’s hard drive and is linked to your account. If you try to install a game that’s been installed on someone else’s then you’ll have to pay a fee.
So they’re forcing me to get off my ass and decide which next-gen platform to buy (and whether or not it’s even worth it to buy one) instead of giving me a painless upgrade path where I can still pop in Assassins Creed Brotherhood? Brilliant.
